Area high school students are invited to apply for Government-in-Action Youth Tour, a 10-day trip to Washington, D.C. in June sponsored by the Central Texas Electric Cooperative, on which students have the opportunity to learn about the government, explore the historical Capitol city, and meet new friends.
The CTEC covers airfare, hotel stay, meals and attractions on the trip, which gives students the chance to build leadership skills through social interaction and educational experiences.
Students will tour memorials, monuments, and museums in Washington, D.C., as well as participate in a dinner and dancing cruise on the Potomac River, attend a performance at the Kennedy Center, and explore many parts of the important city.
